Brownwood

The closer we got to Brownwood, the more bluebonnets we saw, Robin insisted we stop and take a picture, I needed a break from driving, so we stopped.

They even had some in their front yard.
Up close... you can tell I've become accustomed to the city, since the sight of that many bluebonnets fascinated me. Aunt Bethany's new house, away from the city! Mom, Aunt Virgie, and Aunt Bethany.. somehow a picture got brought out after some story telling.
Aunt Bethany insisted on no gifts, no one listened. Jack, Aunt Bethany, and Great Aunt Dottie paused to take a picture.

The Wedding

It was held at a bed and breakfast in Brownwood.

Here comes the bride! Aunt Virgie even wore a dress for the occasion, me and her share a dislike for dresses.
The Bletsch sisters and Jack

Robin, mom, Great Aunt Dottie, Aunt Bethany, me, Aunt Virgie

The newly weds!

The huge pit used to cook all the bbq

There were several creatures, these birds kept making noise throughout the ceremony and I couldn't figure out, from where I was at, what was making it.

The Pond with all the fishies!
And then there was the llama! As we arrived, they were chasing this guy down since he had escaped, literally the first thing I saw after driving through nothing was a llama running across the road. I called him Dolly, Dolly the llama, get it, yea, I like to pretend I'm clever sometimes.

Me and Robin with our long lost cousins (haha), Patti and Susan, and Aunt Dottie and Mom.


I had fun! It was nice to meet some of the family on the Bletsch side!

Beautiful wedding--can't believe how GREEN Brownwood is this time of year! Must be all the rain. I LOVE the picture of you and Robin, and I love you Dolly Llama picture! :)

Rebecca,

You're an excellent poet and photographer! I was so glad that we could celebrate Sissy and Jack's wedding! I loved spending time with you, Robin and Glenda! I enjoyed looking at your pictures and especially your experience of Brownwood. Tell me More! I love seeing and hearing what you say! Love Aunt Virgie

Wow, Rebecca! You certainly captured some memorable events from the wedding! Jack and I were thrilled that you were able to take time away from your college classes to attend the wedding. We hope that you will come back really soon to take advantage of the Country Experience!
